LILY'S POV
As soon as Liam said those words, I burst into tears. I couldn't believe what I had just heard, it couldn't possibly be true.
How would Nevaeh react when she finds out? I was lost in thought until I heard "Mum, good morning," Nevaeh's small voice came through my ears. *Sniffles*
"Mother? Why are you crying?" Neveah said as I quickly wiped my face.
*Sniffles*
"I'm not crying, something flew into my eyes," I said making Nevaeh look at me skceptically before saying,
"That's a lie mum, you were crying. What happened?" "And why's your phone on the floor?" She said as she walked over to my phone and picked it up. As soon as she picked up the phone, Liam's voice came through my unscratched phone,
"Ma'am I'm so sorry, I failed to protect the. boss, the best doctors are working on his case right now,"
"Mum? Did something happen to daddy?" She asked.
I paused for quite some time without saying a word.
"What happened to my daddy? Is it very serious?" She bombarded me with questions.
*Sighs*
"If I can fool others I can't fool you," I said as I opened my arms invite har for a hug.
"I'm sorry baby, dad had an accident," I said as she started sobbing loudly.
"I didn't wqnt you to find out this way, the fact is didn't want you to find out at all, because I know you'll feel broken, I'm sorry,"
*Sobs*
"I want to see him," She requested.
"I know you want to see him, but it's dangerous over there..."
"No mum, don't say you can't take me to see my daddy, I am not afraid of danger, just take me to see him" She said.
"But,"
"No buts mum, what if he needs to see me, or something worse happens," She said.
*Nevaeh sniffles* "Please mum,"
*Nevaeh sobs* "Please," She pleaded.
"What if something goes wrong? Or receive and ambush as a present just like that of your dad's?"
"You know that if anything happens to you or the girls I will not forgive myself," I said.
"Mum, everything will be just fine, okay? I'll always protect the girls, you, and myself I promise," *Nevaeh sniffles*
"I don't what I would do if didn't have you by, you always manage to stay positive even in distressing times, such as this,"
"I love you, you know that right?" Wiping the traces of tears off her face as she nodded.
"Yes, I know and you will always love me just I will always love you," She said as I pulled her into a hug.
At that moment I just wished that everything would rewind back to the day of the event. If I had not taken that stupid action, my dad, Derrick, Georgia, Bryan, and even Zavier will still be with me right now, I said to myself in my heart, crying silently.
"Mummy, stop crying, dad's gonna be fine and everything will soon go back to normal," Neveah said cleaning my own tears.
"Thank you, baby. But you have to promise me something if we are to return to go visit your dad,"
"And what is that?" She asked.
"You have to promise me that no mattrer what happens you'll put the safety of you and your siblings first, even if I am in danger or about to die,"
"But..."
"No buts just promise me," I said.
"I can't do that,"
"Then it is settled you will be staying here,"
"No, I want to see daddy,"
"Then promise me,"
"Fine, I promise," She reluctantly said.
"Good now go amd pack the stuffs you need, we are leaving today,"
